What to Know

The Texas A&M Aggies are on the road again on Wednesday and play against the Virginia Cavaliers at 7:15 p.m. ET on November 29th at John Paul Jones Arena. Virginia is favored, but seeing as the odds didn't stop Texas A&M in their last game, maybe the team has another upset up their sleeve.

Last Sunday, the Aggies didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against the Cyclones, but they still walked away with a 73-69 victory. The win was all the more spectacular given Texas A&M was down 21 points with 2:44 left in the first half.

Texas A&M's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Solomon Washington led the charge by scoring 18 points along with 6 rebounds. Less helpful for Texas A&M was Wade Taylor IV's abysmal 0-6 three-point shooting.

Meanwhile, the defenses reigned supreme when Virginia and West Virginia played on Wednesday, rewarding bettors who took the risk on the low 120.5-point over/under. The Cavaliers had just enough and edged the Mountaineers out 56-54. The victory was just what Virginia needed coming off of a 65-41 loss in their prior matchup.

Virginia's victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Reece Beekman, who scored 12 points along with 5 assists and 4 steals.

The losses dropped the Aggies to 6-1 and the Cyclones to 5-2.

Not only did both teams in this Wednesday's contest win their last matches, they also took care of their bettors and covered the spread. As for their next game, Virginia is expected to win a tight contest, barring any buzzer beaters. This contest will be their seventh straight as the favorites (so far over this stretch they are 4-2 against the spread).

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Texas A&M have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 43.4 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Virginia struggles in that department as they've been averaging 32.5 per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
